The Effect of Anti-Wear Additives on the Lubrication Properties of Corrosion Preventive Oils

Abstract

Several common extreme pressure and anti-wear additives were investigated to determine their suitability for use in corrosion preventive oils. The lubrication properties of the additives dissolved in a purified base oil were determined and found to be closely related to their adsorption kinetics. Perfluorooctanoic acid and zinc dithiophosphate were the most effective additives examined. Evaluation of 1.0% by weight zinc dithiophosphate in a proprietary corrosion preventive oil showed that this additive caused a considerable improvement in lubrication properties without being detrimental to the other desired properties of the oil.
